Either consult Microsoft or unscrew the controller to remove the metal pointer and get a replacement halo headset.

Search your home or abode for all types of computer mics. My firend right now for x-box live is using a computer mic, it makes everyone sound like their on TS (teamspeak). But it works none the less.

I would replace it it with a messenger kit, you get a good mic and and the keypad (which is very useful) and it is pretty cheap now...

no, all you have to do is get a replacement tip for your current headset.

No the usb headset will not work. Just buy another, they're only GBP15.
